Symposium on Advanced Adenomas & Early Colorectal Cancer

About the course

SATC-C is pleased to announce the 2026 Symposium on Advanced Adenomas and Early Colorectal Cancer, dedicated to Professor Gunnar Baatrup in recognition of his contributions to the field, and in light of his retirement.

The symposium will focus on innovation, quality, and the future of colorectal diagnostics and treatment.

Throughout the day, clinicians and researchers will come together to share knowledge, challenge perspectives, and explore new developments in capsule technology, endoscopy, oncology, and clinical research.

Through a combination of scientific presentations and personal reflections, the program will highlight both the current state of the field and its future directions.

We look forward to an engaging day of discussion, collaboration, and inspiration.

For those who have the opportunity SATC-C would like to honor Professor Baatrup by inviting everyone to conclude the day with a shared dinner at the Hotel.

The symposium is sponsored by SATC-C
